Not sure what to say?

Well it has been a month since you have been gone and still a day doesn't go by that I don't think of you Eily and miss you but I know you are watching down over us all with Grandpa and Uncle Mike. I miss and love you all and will see you all again at those pearly gates. Love You

Maryanne, I have fond memories of your mom and your family. I remember the first time I met her. For some reason we got out of school early that day and we walked to your house. She was making BLT's and she was watching All My Children, that was the first time I had seen that soap, and she was telling me all about Erica Cann. You couldn't help but fall in love with her. I'm so very sorry for your loss, I recently lost my husband, I feel your pain.

Bill,
I always thought your mom was a great person and mother. I'm sure she will be missed by many.

Eilee was such a wonderful woman. She always brought a smile to your face with her quick wit and facial expressions. She will be missed.

We all have been blessed to have had a lady like Eily in our lives. Her smile and her laughter were infectious. Don't be sad that she is gone but rather think about how happy she is to be back with "The Bear" and Mike. She will be missed but we will be together again soon talking, laughing and drinking tea!

Dear Gaffney Family,

Aunt Eily was a wonderful person who we all adored. We always think of her funny personality and quick wit. She was always ready to dance to the hokey-pokey and put a smile on everyone's face. She was so thoughtful and generous too. I remember on our birthdays Aunt Eily would always send money for all of us to go get ice cream so even if it wasn't your birthday you still had a treat from Aunt Eily. My deepest sympathy to you and your family. I know my grandma...

I know how lucky I am to have had you as my grandama. Everytime I saw you I always left knowing that you loved me. I miss you and I love you Eily.

Mar, Billy and Families -

My heart goes out to all of you for the loss of Eily. Please know how much she was loved by everyone that knew her. You are all so lucky to have had such a loving, sweet and funny lady in your lives. I will miss her very much.

You're all in my prayers.

Love,
Deana

Dear Bill and entire Gaffney family,

What a great mom and dad you had. When my thoughts revert to the old neighborhood, the Gaffney's are fondly remembered. My prayers are with you.
